The strap member'fi extends in a diagonal I plane with respect to the body 1 and further intersectsthetransverse median of thebody 51 at the longitudinal center of the latter.

The endsof the strap 7 are disposed at. i

opposite sides of the transversemedian of the body 1 and each at a'point substantially I centrally between the transversemedian and the point of joinder of a securing element and at anioppositeinclination withrespect to the plane o-f said me1nber'.g ,Theloops 9 extend transversely of the member 7 wi h respect to the widthof the latter I I In Figurest and 50f the drawings there. i

withthe bodyfl. The holding loopsforined by .-the Vmember 7. are disposed diagonally tended'to provide the short tabs 12 each provided with a transverse angular slot 13. This body portion as shown is of elongated oval form like the body portion 1 df thefirst mentioned structure, and may have one or more pencil holding loops. secured thereto,

the figure here shows only a single loop 14" stitched at each end as at 15 but, it is of course understood that a pair of loops may be secured to the body 11 in the same manner as the loops 9- are secured to the body 1' r of the structure shown in Figures l and 3.

' st p An elongated relatively narrow securing 16 is provided forluse in conjunction with the body 11, the ends of this securing strap being passed through the apertures 13 from the lower side so that the intermediate portionof the securing strap extends longitudinallyof the body portion 11 upon the;

I under side and theends of the strap project outof the apertures across the tabs 12 V as shown. This strap may be provided with appropriate securing means, snap fasteners here being shown with the heads 17 at one end ofthe strap and the buttons 18 at the opposite end, but any other ap-' ,propriate means may be; substituted for these snap fasteners. V

. From the foregoing description it may be.

seen that an improved pencil or pen holder is provided Which can be held conveniently upon the wrist, and due to the shape of the- 7 body portion, the same will be held tightly againstthewrist and will not turn upat the free side to catch in anything when the hand of 'the wearer is. moved about. Furtl1er,the securing loops carried upon the body portion are relatively narrow, requiring very little material, and further, the angular manner in which they are applied to the body portion gives a wide expanse 'of the'bodyp0rtion for the body of the pencil to rest upon.

having thus described my invention what I claim-as; r

A holding device for the purpose set forth comprising an oval-shaped flexible body portion and to provide a plurality ofspaced holding loops disposed in parallel planes and extending diagonally with respect to the body portion and further extending in planesx intersecting the plane of said mem- :b'er,,sa1d member havlng each end thereof positioned between the transverse median of said body portion and the point of join der of an element with the end of'said body elements are connected together to retain said body portion upon the wrist of a wearer.
